Re: Elizabeth Warren to Dems: Kill the bill

So Liz wants a Government shutdown? Cool. Sounds like she's going to run after all.

If it weren't for the last minute provision that was written be CityBank staff, she would have voted for the bill. She is trying to protect the interest of the American people. Shame on her.

You know, they’re standing there with no clothes. ‘Is everybody OK?’ And you see these incredible looking women, and so I sort of get away with things like that.”

Elizabeth Warren whose overburdensome regulations on community banks and credit unions is going to drive most of your local banks out of business, which will result in the big banks getting even bigger, and credit becoming harder to get for small businesses and consumers.

Yes, she's wonderful.

Such a steaming pile of nonsensical crap.

Warren is not being completely honest in what she is saying.

it doesn't eliminate the requirement. it expands it to include more derivatives something all banks have been seeking for years now.
what is in the bill > than what warren distorts the bill to say.

I read you link. She does not say anything different.

would eliminate a requirement under the Dodd-Frank financial reform law that banks trade financial derivatives separately from regular bank accounts, which are protected through the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC).

^^^ That is the truth.

Re: Elizabeth Warren to Dems: Kill the bill

That also happens to be true. But hey, you Canadians are welcome to take her off our hands.

You can keep Tres. I would be more than happy to have someone like Warren As Prime Minister here.

Yup, special interests are very keen on anything that keeps Glass-Steagal reforms of any kind from returning. Why? Because they want to use YOUR money to gamble with, and who pays if they lose their bet? YOU do, of course.
